Hello, I don't have the best news regarding my progress this month.

I've been sick for the last three weeks, spent some time in the hospital, and also had another operation, and I'm currently recovering from it. Because of this, I haven't been able to devote enough time to the project this month.

I also have another, more serious operation planned for the end of this month, which will take me out of action again for a while... and then a third operation at the beginning of next year.

Because of this, I can confidently say that I definitely won't be getting an update this year.


What have I managed to do over the past month?

First, I've almost completely reworked the combat system logic. In the old version of combat, enemies simply used skills at random intervals ranging from 5 to 20 seconds. Now, enemies, like Caroline, have an energy recharge.

Caroline will be able to use her skills to slow down and reset enemies' energy gains.


Next, enemies now have a new type of skill—supported skills. For example, right now the NPC just gives a single kiss and that's it. Now, he'll also have an alternative skill: "Long Kiss." During this skill, Cara won't be able to use her skills because the NPC will be holding her tightly, and her mouth will be occupied. Caroline will need to interrupt this skill, and the updated combat system interface will help her with this!


NPCs will have several such skills, and Caroline is also planning similar skills in the seduction category.

I've reworked the layers for Cara and the NPCs, which will allow me to add different costumes for Cara in the future when needed.


Despite frequent and lengthy breaks from the project, I managed to partially complete the idle animations for the men. Just don't think that most of the work is done... I still need to animate the clothes, and add shadows and lighting.


After that, I need to cut all the animations into separate segments and add them to the game.

Plans:

First, I need to improve my health. Whenever possible, I'll be drawing skill animations for NPCs and Caroline.

I have a fairly large skill list, and creating the entire list of animations will take a very long time. To avoid delaying the updates, I'll create just a few skills in the next update, and then add skills for NPCs and Caroline each update. It's difficult for me to predict the release window for the next update due to the uncertainty of my health. When I have more information, I'll definitely let you know.

Thank you for your support! Stay in touch!

This will be a very short report.

And all because I spent almost two weeks in the hospital, after which I worked on the project for about a week and caught a cold. I'm already on the mend, but I'll be back to work on the project fully next week.

This month, I managed to finish all the idle animations for the men. I didn't just draw them, I programmed everything in-game and set them up. You can already see how they behave in-game. I'll add the camera shake later, when all the animations are ready.


Also, I've been practicing drawing faces a lot and have significantly improved Cara's face in the idle. Just look at the difference...


Future plans:

  1. The most important thing is to finish the mandatory animations for the men, namely, the undressing animations for Cara and the NPCs. As well as the orgasm animations. And the idle animations for an aroused Cara.
  2. After that, I want to move on to another task, working on a crucial feature for the game: incoming mail.
  3. Then I'll return to animation, starting with NPC skill animations and Cara's.
I'll report on the results, as always, every month. Thank you for your support, and I apologize for the game update being so delayed .

Stay healthy, above all else health is the most important. I am glad to see you back in action though ;)
